The Remarkable Rocket is remarkable, because although we no longer have as many fairy stories as the Victorians, so it's more difficult to appreciate his mockery of the form, and we don't have as much casual exposure to streamside wildlife as they probably did, those are all ancillary points and his main effort* continues to shine through.

I dream of a “classic web” as well.

Principles:

(a) non minification and no binary code – this is so that the platform is user and dev centred and not corpo and advertiser centred

(b) static only mode as default, as in a site will be considered broken if it needs dynamic scripts to work, or at least it won't be considered a "classic" site – this is for (1) accessability and (2) command line (non-GUI) browser access and (3) easier automation – push as much common dynamic stuff into CSS as possible

(c) cookies are in plain text and by default can only store essential information, cookies must be versioned and have a corresponding description file on the site's server – no information can be stored on the user's computer that is opaque to the user

(d) instant messaging is to be a standard of the “classic” web – it must be federated and decentralised, just like the web is – it is not a separate information space, it is part of the same information space as the “classic” web

that's off the top of my head – i view the web and instant messaging (or microblogging or whatever you want to call it) as fundamentally broken and user hostile

What the article forgot to mention is that is not suitable for scale out workloads. No concurrent network access.
On your first point, I stand partly corrected. Thanks for the details and especially those involving Starfish Prime. In my defense, I was referring mainly to the blast effects of nukes, which are indeed much weaker in a vacuum than they are in a terrestrial landscape since, obviously, there's no gas to transmit the destructive overpressure that causes most of the physical destruction at a distance that nukes are famous for. I also considered the possibility of satellites being hardened against EMP effects.

However, I'd forgotten about the heat transmission caused by radiation or the destructive effects on electronics caused by said radiation.

Still though, it would be a way of destroying satellites that would be damn expensive and damn hard to control precisely, which is why I still think a realistic scenario for some power destroying satellites would involve much simpler, smaller weapons.

As for your last point, bear in mind that getting an object above the Karman line has been easy for a while now and isn't nearly the same as getting an object to have enough launch energy to stay in a stable orbit, or stay in orbit at all. Pulling that off would be much harder, and especially if you want to lob something as heavy as a nuke into space, and then have it travel enough distance in an orbital circuit to reach a specific part of the sky.
While i agree that EU airports are very efficient, 20 minutes before schedule take-off must be impossible. Surely you mean 20 minutes before boarding starts?
No, it was beyond amazing. Both the pilots and robots had a distinct character and a history behind them, and some combinations just seemed a better git than others. Like I can't imagine the kickboxer Milano piloting anything else besides a Jaguar or maybe a Shadow.
I also liked how after every match, you got a news report with highlights of your match, with "screenshots" showing key moments - not sure how they managed to do that in an old DOS game - nothing short of genius IMO. I can't think of any other game which has this feature.

The manual included with the game was also a very interesting and fun read - full of humor and quips about the game devs - even including a humorous piece on the main developer's baby daughter. Reading the manual made the game and the game devs feel so much more alive. I haven't played OMF in decades, yet I still remember most of their names - Rob Elam, Ryan Elam, the genius music composer Kenny Chou[1] and not to forget the baby, Bethany Kay Elam. Till date I wonder what she's is up to, and whether she's gotten over her habit of slobbering over the keyboard...

Personally, for me, OMF2097 was the definitive fighting game of all time. It's a pity that almost no one ever thinks of it, it's always either Tekken, Street Fighter, or MK. All great games, mind you, but they're nothing like OMF.

Pre-Elon moderation was (somewhat) sensible. Every online space needs a janitorial crew to keep it from turning into a wasteland (look at 4chan /b/, and even b isn't completely unmoderated). But it didn't take actions at the emotional whims of a megalomaniac ruler.

You're trying to outreason an opinion, and not only that, but you're also attempting to do so by putting words into their mouth. Please reconsider.

Domain Driven Design makes so much sense. But, in my opinion, it's generally just an excuse for people to show how smart they are. They often don't talk to any other department, they'll come up with excuses for this and refuse to admit that they're not doing DDD. They'll claim they're doing "tactical DDD" or some other name. These same people will force everything to be immutable even tho it's clear under DDD that entities are in their nature mutable. It's often a collection of doing things that aren't what they're meant to be.

If you're actually talking to other departments and have a very tricky domain I fully believe that DDD can solve some major problems. If not, I think you just want to show off how smart you are. And if you want to show me how smart you are do it by solving problems for people. Especially the problems that others can't solve.
USB-C is already a de-facto standard, supports a wide range of voltages and with enough current to be able to charge even beefy laptops. You also don't have to support all the complexity; if you just want to power a simple device that needs 5V with at most 1A or so, then you only need two resistors on that device.

Sure, it has some issues in some of the more complex cases (mostly because not all USB cables have all the wires they should), but I don't see any alternative that will give an overall better experience.

With postgres I think it's also the problem of weak observability mechanisms. By default all you get is cumulative statistics. Then with extensions you get pg_stat_statements and a few more things, but you really shouldn't need to use something like pgAnalyze to get basics, like history of autovacuums, cumulative wait events and other stuff like that.

> If social media is about having interesting, dynamic interactions with people, then you need to go to the place that maximizes the chance of this happening

if that was the case people would stay with Twitter/X

> For example, one of its core features - federated servers and identity - is actually a pretty confusing UX pattern for the vast majority of people that don’t care about that kind of thing (“you’re telling me there’s a @choldgraf@hachyderm.io and a @choldgraf@mastodon.social and they’re two different people?!”).

how on earth is this confusing to anyone? it's a different model

> Moreover, while having federated servers means that communities have more control over their norms and rules, it also means communities have to do a lot more work to understand the idiosyncratic policies of each server. These are features if you think of a social networks as a tightly-interconnected and self-contained community, but the appeal of these kinds of platforms is having global reach to people that you may otherwise never have met.

people forget in real life that we aren't all in the same social network and there are different protocols for different meat-space social networks and we internalise and navigate them all the time – in fact there are genres of literature out there (comedy of manners) that exploit social misunderstandings

This seems rather serious:

„Neuberger explained that once Chinese hackers infiltrated telecommunication networks, they essentially had "broad and full access" to American data, which allowed them to
"geolocate millions of individuals" and "record phone calls at will."
It's unclear how many Americans were impacted by the breach at large, though Neuberger said a large number of individuals were geolocated in the Washington, D.C., area. "We believe it was the goal of identifying who those phones belong to and if they were government targets of interest for follow-on espionage and intelligence collection of communications, of texts and phone calls on those particular phones." She added that
"probably less than 100" individuals were targeted for collection of their phone calls and texts.“

* What if the initramfs was rebuilt every time the OS was upgraded.*

On most distributions, they already are if the kernel changes in anyway. This is what ends up filling up your /boot partition.

Then for every ordinary boot, immediately after disk decryption, we keep the disk decryption password in memory for just a little bit longer, and use it to check the signature on the initramfs before continuing with the boot.

You can just reuse the existing architecture of secure boot/tpm to store public keys (although GRUB is a disaster and will likely break your boot chain of trust). You normally can't add additional keys unless the system is in setup mode. But, the process to add a self signed key is not user friendly and you'd still need to store the private key on disk to sign additional images, which malware can access.

There is a process to generate something known as a UKI, where it can be a signed kernel/initramfs verified by the firmware secure boot, but I believe only Red Hat has keys to sign anything and most distos get given a signed shim that will only boot the turd called GRUB.
In the average organization, if you're not talking to other departments then, almost by definition, you're also not doing DDD.

> Russia violated Turkey’s airspace only once, the jet was shot down immediately, and, save to say, Putin was on the phone with Ankara to prevent an all out escalation with a NATO member that can trigger article 5 at any time for self defense after an apparent aggression. Turned out, no more airspace violations happened again.

I was on the same page as you for a long time, but aggressively defending your airspace also increases risk of collateral damage, leading to, for example, your military shooting down Azeri passenger jets. Or Malaysian ones. Or Iranian ones (to name one not committed by Russia).
> there is no reason to offer a valuable feature for free.

Well that's of course OK with me : Bluesky should make their users pay. 10 % of users paying 1€/month, 1 % paying 10 €/month, for instance. That's ok, we're paying a service.

But the API access and federation should remain free.

They also provide coordination and legalisation of collusion.
It's not almost it is exactly the definition. The key thing about DDD is ubiquitous language, which is everyone using the same language. And learning things from the domain experts who are in other departments. If you're not talking to other departments you can't be using the same language as them. Nor can you learn from the domain experts. Nor even ensure that the domain flow maps the same as the company. DDD and BDD are fundamentally about talking to people. But that's the hard part so people skip it.
I would probably aim for a title like ‘what does the “Enhanced Visual Search” feature do in iOS 18 and MacOS 15?’ Or ‘how much data is sent to Apple for the new “Enhanced Visual Search” in Photos’.

I think the early comments on this submission were because the headline made them mad because they were incurious and not particularly related to the topic of the article making – most could be under any article about Apple Photos. One early comment was about switching to alternatives to Photos and another was, paraphrasing, ‘I’m so angry. I don’t care about homeomorphic encryption or differential privacy’. Others seemed to follow the theme of the latter. After a while a comment attempted an overview of some of the technical details, which I thought was better.

Perhaps a more precise complaint is that many of the early comments didn’t really depend on the contents of the article – they could go under many Apple submissions – and I think it’s more likely for comments like that to be written while incensed.

I don’t think you’re to blame for the comments people choose to leave.

Devs always complain about advertising, but it's why devs tend to do much better comparatively to other jobs in same region. Without distribution mechanisms, there are no sales, without sales, there are no well paid jobs, and eventually no jobs at all.

Similar can be said about almost any other job, except the well-paid part.

Look at the world before advertising. Everything had to be local small scale only. So everything was very expensive, because no large-scale manufacturing effectivity and massive discounting on end product. Lot of technology isn't even possible on small scale.

Nothing worse than salty uneducated devs that think they understand how world works, just because they know how to code, but know nothing about history, economy, business and marketing.

I don't like intrusive advertising either. Nobody says that it has to be pushed to the most extreme level possible for it to maintain the benefits. Not even remotely. I also use agressive adblock, I don't react to ads in Google or YouTube, because they tend to be bad and completely non-relevant. I occasionaly react to Instagram ads though, for example. I bought products off Instagram ads and I am glad for it.

Some way to promote your product to consumers is extremely valuable and healthy to the modern world. Unless you want to separate yourself from it and become a self-sufficient small community oriented society, like Mormons.

The idea of virality and "build great product and they will come" has to be the stupidest crap devs tend to believe. It only works briefly in the early stage within the new market category. 99.9% of world'S products are in mature stage, and those beliefs will get you bankrupt. World needs advertising. New startup founders of great valuable products need advertising. You can notice that those that understand that, succeed vastly more often.

Ten key insights from development economics research in 2024
There's a bit wrong on the keycap material side of things. You can't directly compare ABS to PBT in a vacuum - different specific blends of both are used in keycaps, for various price points/purposes/etc. There's also nothing preventing ABS keycaps from having texture.

In fact, on the high end side of things, ABS doubleshot keycaps from manufacturers such as GMK are considered to be the gold standard, and PBT is often seen as the more "value" option. Though, I don't think this is accurate for the same reasons that I think the reverse is inaccurate, because you can get plenty of high quality PBT sets.

It's a fun hobby, and the amount of customization you can get into to suite whatever your specific desires are is insane. I had never thought I would get into any sort of physical product design, but it's a unique enough niche that it is fairly common for people to design keycap sets, keyboards, etc., and get them built in low (300-2kish unit for keycaps, sometimes even as low to 10-100ish for keyboards) MOQs, and I've ended up designing 3 different keycap sets with a friend of mine.
